When does a Corvette look like a Ferrari and when  Ferrari looks like a
Corvette? When Chevy brought out it's new Corvette it had the headlights of
a Ferrari. Now it looks like a Ferrari will look like a Corvette.

You mean they look like that because they put them on the front, or because
they put one on each side? I noticed that the tail lights were on the back
and they made them the same color, what's your point?

If you look at the sideview, you'd see his point.

If you're talking about the headlights why would I be looking at it
sideways? My guess would be that Ferrari doesn't think it looks like a
Corvette.You see the point?

I wasn't talking about the headlights, I was talking about the sideview.  It
has VERY very similar lines to a
C5 or C6 for that matter since they both look alike form the side. Anyway...
you'd think Ferrari could do better than that..

His point, the one you said I would see, was the headlights. They are
nowhere near the Corvettes design. People tend to see what they want to see
and make it an issue. In this case I took it as a troll type of post and
responded in kind.

I guess I didn't read it that way.  I took it to mean that the headlights
were non-popup and behind glass (whatever you call that new style) on the
new Vettes AND that the new car looked like a Vette.  Which it has the same
lines from the side.  Know what I mean?

If he was trolling.. well then I guess we both took the bait.  Let's see if
you bite again. :-)

Actually I didn't take the bait, you did. If he wasn't a troll my guess is
that he would have contributed to the post with a follow up, which he
didn't.

You did bite again...

He's probably on the phone with his lawyer right now to find out exactly
WHAT he said at this point.

Now you're talking about biting, when it was bait, or was it headlights no,
it was the side view. He said, she said, you're very hard to follow. You
need to make up your mind and stay on subject. I'm sure his lawyer will tell
him that you just read it wrong.

Maybe it is because Corvette kicks Ferrari's a.s at Le Mans.
